I was expecting my domperidone to be delivered today. It was sent via registered mail and requires a signature, so I've been tracking it and it said out for delivery this morning. I literally stood at the window and watched the mailman deliver a package to the house across the street. He then got back in his truck and drove down the street to where all the mailboxes for the street are located. I figured he'd finish delivering the mail, then stop by my house to deliver my package on his way out. Nope. He left a slip in my mailbox saying he attempted delivery, but no one was home. Are you kidding me??? So now I have to go pick it up at the post office or have them attempt to redeliver, which they'll probably screw up.
The weather sucks. It's 80 degrees, overcast and disgustingly humid today. Later this week it's going to be rainy and the high in Friday is 55 degrees. I want to enjoy being outside while I'm on maternity leave!

OH I would be so pissed. I would raise hell at the post office.

I would be so pissed! That kept happening to me so I made a big fuss and now it doesn't happen anymore. The postman probably spits on my mail though. Lol
Our tenant gave us notice that she is going to move out Nov 30th. We aren't planning on moving back until June 2016 and that is what DH's boss had agreed to. We asked the tenant to stay if we reduce the rent as we don't want the house to sit empty in the Midwest winter.
We cannot afford to pay our mortgage in the States and rent here...I am so stressed on what is going to happen.

It's a gorgeous day outside and I would love to take the boys on a walk but I haven't been cleared yet. Stupid labial tear (walking causes friction which could slow healing)!

That happened to me once with a package I needed. It was incredibly frustrating, and the post office really didn't seem to care. They straight up lied to me about attempting delivery!!
My vent is that I've been coughing for over a week now -- deep, chest rattling coughs. Now, I somehow managed to bruise my tailbone. So now every time I cough, my ass feels like it's going to explode.
I am so. annoyed. with my boss. I know it's PG hormones but OMG. Rage.
I have 2 days left of work max and I'm basically doing them a favor by helping on my maternity leave. He wants me to communicate my hours to everyone. Um, no. Because then I will be doing everything and it's your job to be able to find backup for me. I'm not going to do my regular job in 1 day a week. I told you all of this stuff already and you chose not to hire a temp to help. And now at the 11th hour you realize how much work it's going to be? That's on you dumbass.
I've felt very emotionally out of control the last week or so. So much is going on with P and I feel like nobody else understands.
Hopefully a few days away will help me refocus.
My heart really goes out to you. I am so sorry that you have so much on your plate. You are a phenomenal mother and person and your children as so lucky to have you as their advocate.
My mother is coming to visit this weekend. Which means I am a huge ball of stress about my weight and my house. When I should be focusing on the crazy amount of work I need to do right now. But I know she's going to make some well intentioned but super hurtful comments. She always does. Why do I care?! I have tried to not care but have never had success with that.
If you are having an extremely small wedding that you are hardly inviting anyone to, you should not post about your wedding all day every day on Facebook.

I'm sorry @brie. It's got to be so difficult to navigate all of that, but your kids have such a strong advocate in you. I hope you can find some balance for yourself very soon.
The baby kept waking up all night. He went down at 9:30, then woke up at 10:30, 11:30 and midnight screaming bloody murder, like he'd been shot. I had to pick him up and rock/sway him to get him back to sleep those three times, but then he was up again at 1:30, 2:30, 3 and 4:30. He went back to sleep mostly by himself with the help of a pacifier and a back rub those times, but I'm annoyed that my husband either snored right through it or lay there waiting for me to get up. I wanted to shake him. I know he's home with him all day, and that yesterday was especially rough because B was extra cranky and the contractors are doing work. But jesus christ, man. I don't really want to get up out of bed 37 times a night when you are also right. there. I swear part of this is because I haven't moved B to his crib yet, and he's taking some kind of dumbass stand about how it'll be easier for "us" to sleep once he moves, since "we" won't jump at every move. But your point is rendered moot when you effing snore through it, jackass!

We walk into daycare for a scheduled conference for DD and are informed that DS has eye drainage. We can leave him in the room while we have the confidence but then need to take him with us. We need to get him checked out before he can come back. Tried to call our new pedi and the first available appt it tomorrow at 3 so we have to go to the walk in clinic tonight. Blah
I'm still waiting for DH to apologize for an incredibly insensitive comment he made to me over the weekend about my work. Sadly, I don't think it's coming because I am certain he feels like he was "just telling the truth," which makes it hard for me to bring up since I cannot materially change what bothers him about my job (the crap pay, basically).
Today I feel like a terrible sahm. I have lost my patience multiple times and I just want to be alone for 30 min but Ds won't nap. "Maybe later mom". Omg. He basically watched tv most of the morning so I don't want to just plop him in front of a movie. I just cried out of frustration and now he's being nice to me.
My DH has been very short on patience lately so I don't even feel like I could leave for a bit when he comes home. He really just is not well equipped to deal with almost three year olds. I am tired of having to be the one to hold it together recently.

One of the boys in football hit his head at practice last thurs but didn't tell the coaches. Told his mom later when he had a headache. She said he was fine and he played the game sat. Says he hit his head in the game but no one saw it and he said nothing until he got home. His mom did nothing. Mon he comes home from school vomiting and disoriented.
She is now yelling at my H and the other coaches while asking what to do with him.
Umm...call the freaking dr. oh and that phone he is glued to 24/7? Take it away.
She said she would feel bad taking away his devices.

Didn't she at least google concussions?
Wtf? I just got the "your child might have a concussion" note from school today after some kid rammed into DD's nose and caused a nose bleed. This is probably the 4th or 5th time I've gotten this note since DD started elementary school. I guess not everyone takes the possibility of a concussion as seriously?
I have a cold, my first PP period, and DD is going through some weird sleep thing where she has been waking up at 11pm and staying awake for 2-4 hours.
Still pregnant. Big change from this morning, I know.
This also means that I'll be missing a very big game this weekend. page
I hope your pregnancy status changes SOON!
I don't know that I would sweat the game though. Honestly I am dreading it a little bit. I have shed far more tears over this particular matchup over the years than any other. Including vs. Florida.
I anticipate an empty booze cabinet and bitten down nails by the end of Saturday night regardless of how the game goes.

H is trying to make it sound like a good thing that we will likely miss it. I'm like, PACK MY LUCKY UNDIES!
You know who I have grown to hate as much or more than Florida? South Carolina. I do love seeing Spurrier this way. Heh.

DC made me keep ds home today. He's had a cold for a week that has progressed to a cough, runny nose and low grade fever of 99.5 or so. UGH. It's a friggin cold. He has to be fever free 24 hrs so he probably has to stay home tomorrow too. Dh had to work this am so now I'm taking my hour long commute into the city. DS is perfectly happy.
